In the world of instant noodles, where flavors range from mild to wild, we stumbled upon Taiwan Knife Sliced Noodle at our friendly neighborhood NTUC supermarket. Armed with an appetite for adventure and a curiosity for all things delicious, we couldn’t resist trying out these intriguing options – Lobster Mala and Taiwan Braised Pork. As we embarked on this noodle odyssey, we discovered a delightful surprise that left us craving for more.
Unpacking the Essentials
Each box of Taiwan Knife Sliced Noodle contains three tantalizing packs, priced at just $9.89. The promise of a MSG-free experience, combined with the convenience of serving either dry or in a hearty soup, made it an enticing choice. We were ready to dive into the flavor-packed world of instant noodles, and the journey began with simplicity.
Cooking Made Easy
The instructions on the packaging were straightforward and user-friendly, even for those of us whose culinary prowess extends only to boiling water. Boil 1000ml of water, add a cake of the sliced noodle, and let it simmer for 7 to 8 minutes. Turn off the heat, and allow the noodles to soak up the goodness for another minute. After draining the water, you’re ready to indulge in your choice of flavor.
Flavors That Surprise
The first bite into these Taiwan Knife Sliced Noodles was a revelation. The noodles were delightfully chewy, providing the perfect canvas for the robust flavors. Let’s dive into the two tempting options we tried:
Taiwan Braised Pork: This flavor offered a mellow yet flavorful experience. The rich, savory notes of braised pork paired beautifully with the chewy noodles, creating a comforting and satisfying bowl. It’s like a warm hug for your taste buds.
Lobster Mala: For those who crave a hint of spice, the Lobster Mala variety doesn’t disappoint. It’s spicy, but not overpowering, making it ideal for those who enjoy a little kick in their noodles. The spice level is just right, allowing the savory lobster flavor to shine through. It’s a spicy adventure that’s worth taking.
Customized Creations
While the Taiwan Knife Sliced Noodles are fantastic on their own, we couldn’t resist adding some of our NTUC finds to elevate the experience. Fresh lettuce, succulent char siew, and flavorful roasted pork were the perfect companions to our noodle adventure. Keep in mind that these delectable additions are not included in the instant noodle packs – but oh, they’re worth it!
Conclusion
In the world of instant noodles, Taiwan Knife Sliced Noodle stands out as a delightful surprise. With flavors like Lobster Mala and Taiwan Braised Pork, and a promise of no added MSG, it’s a winning choice for both convenience and taste. The chewy noodles are the perfect backdrop for these flavorful options, and with a bit of creativity, you can create a customized noodle masterpiece.
